Work From Bed Friday

Just Do It

Amy Hoffmann & Tommy Borden Season 1 Episode 5

Our character prepares to leave on her cross country road trip, checking off a list of mundane tasks, including marching into her husband's room wearing nothing but high heels. Which begs the question: why is intimacy with our partner sometimes so hard? Even when once you get going you find yourself "sex's biggest fan??"

Amy & Tommy dive into Chapter 4 of Miranda July's All Fours to find themselves busted—their "before times" selves exposed in the narrative. Also, the relative safety of flying over driving. Maybe it's all related?
